I'm back. Went out for a walk at lunch, down to 19th and Pennsylvania. More media and cops and onlookers than protestors on the north end of the fenced-off area. I approached some college students who said they were Democrats but not with the protestors, who they thought were silly. I tried out on them my counterprotest sign ideas:

This is Your Brain on Drugs

or

Capitalism Doesn't Like You Either


They liked the first one better.

Cops seem to be everywhere, can't walk a block in this downtown district without seeing one.

My vote is for #1, but I think someone should have a sign with the following:

Keep America Beautiful-- Take a Bath
